possible. In this situation, you should set the Netware t/o timer by setting the Netware t/o
parameter to specify the timer in minutes. The timer begins counting down as soon as the link
goes down. When the timer expires, the unit stops responding to watchdog packets and the
client-server connections can be released by the server. If the WAN session reconnects before
the end of the selected time, the timer resets.

the end of the selected time, the timer resets.
Note:
The unit performs watchdog spoofing only for packets encapsulated in the IPX frame
type specified in the Ethernet > Mod Config > Ether Options profile. For example, if IPX
Frame=802.3, only logins to servers using that packet frame type are spoofed.
Frame=802.3, only logins to servers using that packet frame type are spoofed.
Example of an IPX client bridge (local clients)
In this example, the local Ethernet network supports NetWare clients, and the remote network
supports both NetWare servers and clients, so the MAX unit requires IPX client bridging.
When Handle IPX=Client, the unit applies a data filter that discards RIP and SAP periodic
broadcasts at its WAN interface, but forwards RIP and SAP queries. Therefore, local clients
can locate a NetWare server across the WAN, but routine broadcasts do not keep the
connection up unnecessarily.

To configure the Site A MAX unit in this example:
1
Make sure that the Name parameter in the System > Sys Config profile specifies a name
for the MAX unit. This example uses the name SITEAGW for the MAX.
